Thanksgiving is a very important holiday in the United States.

Counting the NCAA period, this is the 8th Thanksgiving he has spent in the United States after crossing over.

Of course, this isn't the first time he's played on Thanksgiving.

But unlike in the past, Olson also arrived in Dallas with his two children.

Both children are almost 2 years old and are already quite handsome and charming.

Even when Olson tweeted their photos and feeds, the number of likes and retweets was quite impressive.

It is foreseeable that when they grow up, they will definitely be a new generation of traffic stars.

On this day, the Thanksgiving battle was hyped by the media as the battle of the century, and it felt like Mars hitting the earth.

But when Olsen appeared on the scene with his two children, he brought a touch of a different feeling to this hot match.

The U.S. Route Center Arena was already full.

Olsen and Tang Tian's two sons attracted a lot of attention from the fans at the scene.

Xiao Hua, president of the league, also came to the scene, and his appearance also attracted the attention of some fans.

But by the time the players entered the pitch, most of them looked inside the pitch.

This long-awaited battle is finally about to begin!

In the commentary seat, the TNT triumvirate has already been in place, and in the broadcast seat, the commentators from various countries are also ready early.

Small-city teams are getting less attention, but this superteam collision, especially with the Pelicans, is an extreme bomb.

The game is about to start, and both teams are on the field for their final warm-up training.

The scene continued to give cut shots, and also played the big deal of the two teams in the summer.

All the foreshadowing scenes have been done sufficiently, and the air seems to be filled with the smell of gunsmoke.

However, in the tense atmosphere, a very interesting scene happened.

Jokic and Holiday wanted to go over to say hello to Tang Tian as Pelicans veterans, but were pulled back by Embiid.

This makes the already dramatic game even more interesting.

The scene soon entered the opening ceremony, and the starters of both sides appeared one after another.

Both teams are missing this game, with Rose on the Pelicans' side (injury) and Pachulia on the Mavericks' side (suspended).

However, the absence of role players has little impact on the strength of both teams.

Both sides also started the strongest lineup.

On the Mavericks' side, Conley and Holiday on the outside, Harris and Jokic on the front, and Embiid on the center.

On the Pelicans' side, Walker and Tang Tian on the outside, Butler and Davis on the front, and Dedmon on the center.

The race started immediately, and the fans in the stadium let out a burst of excited cheers, showing the enthusiasm of the cowboys.

Mavericks owner Cuban was among them, wearing his trademark blue T-shirt and looking flushed.

Since winning the championship in 2011, the Mavericks are back at the top of their game, and they're stronger than they've ever been in the past.

Amid the cheers of the fans, Embiid pulled the ball back to the Mavericks' half court with a long arm and officially kicked off the much-anticipated Pelican battle.

Conley holds the ball at the top of the arc.

The Mavericks have continuous pick-and-rolls and air-cut coordination on the off-ball side, and Embiid also boosts Conley to block halfway through the game.

Carlisle's tactical level is second only to Popovich's, and even better than Stevens on the Pelicans' side.

Last season, the Mavericks only had Harris as a consistent off-ball scoring spot, and the off-ball side tactics were relatively easy to target.

But with the addition of Holiday this season, he managed to mobilize the Pelicans' defense.

Both Davis and Butler were swapped to the perimeter.

Conley seized the opportunity to play a tactical match with Embiid, broke through to the penalty area, and distributed the ball to Embiid who followed up.

Embiid catches the ball, dribbles away, squeezes Dedmon and puts the ball in the basket.

Embiid is a modern-traditional amphibious center with projection, who is both confrontational and skillful, and Dedmon struggles to defend one-on-one.

The Mavericks came out on top.

The cheers continued.

The Hornets are weak in two points, offense is not good, defense is not good.

The Pelicans' strength is also strong in the bright spots, making mercury and defending solid.

But judging from the opening round, the Mavericks have the ability to break through the Pelicans' defense!

The Pelicans battled in a positional battle, with Walker and Davis playing pick-and-roll tactics, and the Mavericks had a defensive package.

Walker gave the ball to Butler, who cut in, and Butler made a layup that caused Embiid's hitter to be fouled.

Solidly hit both free throws, and the Pelicans also scored two points.

The Mavericks had a wave of tactical opportunities in the frontcourt, but Harris didn't get the ball in.

Looking back, the Pelicans played Voday again, and Davis didn't rush to attack when he had a chance after receiving the ball.

He dribbled to Harris to help defend and distributed the ball to Butler, who hit the ball from mid-range against Jokic.

The Mavericks' tactical coordination played beautifully, but the Pelicans' tactical thinking was also very clear.

Just as the previous game against the Hornets created opportunities for Walker, Stevens also consciously played more for Butler this time.

And in terms of effect, it was not bad, Butler scored 4 points in a row in the opening game.

But the Mavericks' side did not fall behind, Jokic responded with Embiid in the high post and played an inside pass, Embiid received the ball and turned around to score a violent dunk.

Embiid pounded his chest and roared after the dunk, and the emotions of the fans at the scene were ignited.

"Huh!"

But this mood has not yet fully risen, and Tang Tian's three-point shot from the outside line gave them a basin of cold water in winter.

Tang Tian does not lose a new generation of away silencers.

This three-point point came crucial, and the Pelicans' morale on the defensive end followed.

Even if the fans at the scene shouted loudly under the leadership of the DJ, the Pelicans did not leak.

Embiid didn't have time to make a basket at the end, and the Mavericks were defended for 24 seconds.

There was a stirring on the sidelines.

This offense and defense The Pelicans played dominantly.

And in the next wave of offense, Davis hit his former teammate Jokic with his back in the low post, with solid footsteps and steady play.

The ball grazes the basket and shoots diagonally into the net.

9 to 4.

The Pelicans began to take the initiative on the court.

"It's the same 17-0 record, but there's a big gap between them in terms of goal difference and on-court performance."

On the commentary seat, O'Neill said with a smile.

Barkley and Smith both nodded their heads, and O'Neal said the truth.

It's not a blow, it's a real fact.

The Mavericks are strong, but there is still a gap between them and the Pelicans.

"Huh!"

However, O'Neal's words did not fall, and the Mavericks played tactics in the frontcourt.

Holiday got rid of Butler with a beautiful backcut after an empty cut, and hit a three-point shot from Jokic's pass.

From the cooperation between the Pelicans veterans, and the help of Tang Tian has been put in place, Holiday showed a big heart in the face of the old owner.

Barkley couldn't help but laugh out loud, O'Neal was milking the Mavericks.

But after laughing, he also realized something.

The Mavericks have the power to fight the Pelicans.

And as the game went on, when the first quarter was tied at 36-34, his point of view was a little higher.

"They're a close match."

He made a judgment.
